First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for managing a driver dataset via a portable computing device, comprising:
- generating, by one or more processors of the portable computing device, a plurality of driver profiles, each of the plurality of driver profiles being associated with one of a plurality of drivers in a class roster in which the plurality of drivers are grouped into a plurality of group rosters;
displaying, by one or more processors, a list of the plurality of drivers in the class roster in one of (i) a roster view, or (ii) a group view, upon a user selecting one of a name view interactive icon or a group view interactive icon, respectively, the name view interactive icon and the group view interactive icon being displayed concurrently with each of the roster view and the group view;
receiving, by one or more processors, a first input identifying a first driver from the plurality of drivers in either the roster view or the group view;
transitioning, by one or more processors upon receipt of the first input, from the roster view or the group view to a summary view including;
concurrently displaying, by one or more processors, (i) a graphical and numeric representation of vehicle status data scores associated with a most recent driving session feedback score for a vehicle being driven by the identified first driver during a most recent driving session including a plurality of scaled bars, each of the plurality of scaled bars including a marker indicating a respective vehicle status data score for the most recent driving session, and each of the plurality of scaled bars being filled to show a transition between aggregated vehicle status data scores for the vehicle being driven by the identified first driver during a plurality of driving sessions and the vehicle status data score for the most recent driving session, (ii) a graphical representation of an average of vehicle status data scores for the vehicle being driven by the identified first driver during the plurality of driving sessions taking place prior to the most recent driving session, and (iii) a trip recording interactive icon,upon receiving a second input corresponding to a selection of the trip recording interactive icon;
collecting, by one or more processors, first vehicle status data that is measured via one or more sensors associated with the portable computing device;
calculating, by one or more processors, a first driving session feedback score based upon the first vehicle status data for the vehicle being driven by the identified first driver during a new driving session taking place after the most recent driving session; and
storing, by one or more processors, the first driving session feedback score with a first driver profile from among the plurality of driver profiles that is associated with the identified first driver,wherein the graphical representation of vehicle status data scores for the most recent driving session and the graphical representation of the average vehicle status data scores from the plurality of driving sessions are presented concurrently on the same respective scales to indicate an amount in which the vehicle status data scores for the most recent driving session are greater than or less than the average vehicle status data scores from the plurality of driving sessions taking place prior to the most recent driving session.

Abstract
During driving sessions, data may be collected via one or more sensors that are incorporated within a vehicle or as part of a device carried within the vehicle. Using this data, a driving session report may be generated and a driving session feedback score may be calculated, which provides feedback regarding a students'"'"' driving skills Driver profiles may be generated for each student including contact information and/or any number of driving session reports saved over the course of several driving sessions. A user interface is described that facilitates interaction by allowing a user to create driver profiles, group driver profiles, display driver profiles as a single list view or as a grouped list view, select driver profiles from these displayed lists, edit driver information and/or delete driver profiles, and display driving session reports stored as part of a driver profile together such that comparisons may be made.
